| Comments: |
Followed three barebooters up. As we hit snow above 2500 ft they postholed badly. I put on my snowshoes. I proceeded out to Breadloaf. No recent traffic but moose. Still two to four feet of snow. Took the spur out to the Lodge. Great little cabin in a great location. The three i followed earlier were spending the night. Back down with great sunset. |
